Re: Reverting rectangle contour behavour in FC14 to FC11-style? (and a couple other FC14 questions)

To respond: 1) I'm aware of this. But the Rectangle and Circle tools used to always have their contours clockwise, which made them predictable and easier to work with. Now, since they sometimes generate counterclockwise (even if they aren't technically overlapping another shape, just on the edge of ...

Reverting rectangle contour behavour in FC14 to FC11-style? (and a couple other FC14 questions)

Heya, I have recently upgraded to FontCreator 14. Broadly it's been a nice upgrade from 11, but there are a few things I'd like to ask about. Firstly, the "Add Rectangle" tool's behaviour has changed in a way I find less useful than in 11. In FC11, this tool would always draw a rectangle w...

Re: FC11 64-bit: Rotating/mirroring/moving shapes often causes misalignments

Hey. Was just wondering the status on this now since it's been about a month? While it is indeed quick to work around, having to perform that quick workaround about 30 times a day is getting fairly irritating. Thank you, and I do genuinely appreciate the effort put into FontCreator - it's an excelle...

Re: FC11 64-bit: Rotating/mirroring/moving shapes often causes misalignments

It's a lot easier to reproduce it occurring through the moving than through the rotating/flipping.

I've created a video showing the issue in action for me:

I've also attached the project I used to demonstrate this to this post.

[FIXED] FC11 64-bit: Rotating/mirroring/moving shapes often causes misalignments

Hey, I've started to notice an issue with FC11 that wasn't previously present regarding shapes' alignment. I've attached an example: http://i.imgur.com/WMDJV4S.png I formed the glyph on the left hand side out of the three shown shapes. Each one is an exact multiple of 100 wide, high, and in position...

Re: Right click to create a single off-curve point

For cubic curves, I'm absolutely fine with how it's implemented - makes total sense for that. But for quadratics, it seems a wee bit less intuitive, and makes my workflow a little slower every time I deal with curves (which is very frequently). For example, one of the most common contours I would cr...

Right click to create a single off-curve point

Hey, since my bug post about some of the issues I was having, I've got a fair bit of use out of FontCreator 11. While I'm happy with it for the most part, I'm not sure why, when inserting a custom contour into a glyph, you can no longer use right-click to add a single off-curve point? The dragging t...

Re: [FIXED] FC11 64-bit: Minor bugs/problems after upgrading

I've made one more minor change, and I'm curious if this is a improvement or not. Can you install and try this release: http://www.high-logic.com/tmp/FontCreat ... 77-x64.exe This new version, in my opinion, is absolutely perfect - I could have got used to the first update basing rotation on which ...

Re: [FIXED] FC11 64-bit: Minor bugs/problems after upgrading

Grabbed the new update, the change to the automatic contour direction works perfectly and the bug is indeed solved, which is awesome - thank you very much. For the icons, I think I am on the 24x24 ones and it's just that they're different after several years of burning the older ones into my mind. A...

Re: FC11 64-bit: Minor bugs/problems after upgrading

It's not a bug, the direction is not random, and it's a feature. You no longer have to reverse the direction of interior contours since FontCreator does it automatically. For quadratic curves, interior contours will be counter-clockwise, and for cubic curves they will be clockwise. Ah okay, I'm see...

[FIXED] FC11 64-bit: Minor bugs/problems after upgrading

Hey, I've very recently upgraded from FontCreator 7.5 to 11.0, and am noticing a couple of differences in 11 that seem to be bugs rather than deliberate changes, which are affecting my use of the program negatively. Firstly, when using the stock Draw Rectangle and Draw Circle tools, their contour di...
